NEW ARCTIC MONKEYS ALBUM TITLED ‘AM’

Above: photo of the young Arctic Monkeys. Back when they were simply a blossoming Indie Rock band following the steps of the Strokes. Young and irrelevant.

We at vibesonvibes are very excited about the new record. Based off of the singles ‘R U Mine’ and ‘Do I Wanna Know?,’ this album seems to be going in a heavier direction with rock riffs being the basis of the songs. The Yorkshire quartet maintains, however, their beloved melodic and fun approach to the music. According to NME, John Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and former member of The Coral Bill Ryder-Jones make appearances on the new record, exciting many fans who eagerly anticipate the new direction in which the band seems to be heading. If the singles are any indication, we should really be looking forward to this album. ‘AM’ is scheduled to release Sept. 9.

NOW the members of the acclaimed British Indie Rock band are ‘grown up rockers,’ releasing their 5th studio album, ‘AM’

One thought on “NEW ARCTIC MONKEYS ALBUM TITLED ‘AM’”

I am interested to see where AM will go. I have listened to the Arctic Monkeys since their debut album and have followed them fervently ever since. In ever album they have changed, evolved, and blossomed as indie icons, but what is most important is that they’ve never lost that initial spark and individuality that first got them noticed. They have matured as people and as musicians, but still maintain a dedication to making music that speaks to them and to their fan base. I am hopeful for the new album.
